The tent near Sodom (Part 2 of 2)

The tent near Sodom (Part 2 of 2)

Scripture reading: Genesis 13:12-13

There are many temptations dzinogona kukunda because you are in a certain environment. Pane mimwe miyedzo inokubata very easy nekuti you are surrounded by certain type of people that’s why 1 Corinthians 15:33 Musanyengerwa: “Ushamwari hwakaipa hunoodza tsika dzakanaka.”

Pane dzimwe shamwari dzauri kutofanira kutokanzura hushamwari hwenyu, yes muparidzire kuti atendeuke but maintain your distance. Because its very easy kuti munhu wepedyo ashandiswe nasatan kukupinza muchivi than a total stranger. Munhu wausingazive akauya achida kukuInviter kuti mupinde muchivi unonyatsoona wega kuti uyu ndisatan and unoramba kumuterera, but kana mufesi wako akauya with the same invitation unogona kupinda mazviri nekuti there is a trust relationship which exists between the 2 of you.

Tende iri pedyo neSodom inofanira kudzurwa.

Pane mamwe maContacts ari muFone ari supposed kudzimwa, you must delete certain phone numbers nekuti iwawo ndiwo mamwe maTende ari pedyo neSodom. You know your fone very well kuti nhingi uyu anondipa miyedzo like this and that, ko wadii waDeleter number dzake than kudzichengeta. unoSaver Phone number yechifeve chawasakasangana nacho kubhawa usati watendeuka. Ko miyedzo ikakubata uchaita sei, ndipo pauchazomufonera mukaguma maita zvisirizvo.

Area yakenda kunogara Lot was an area yainge yakanaka physically bible rinoti it was well watered like the garden of The Lord. But ikoko ndiko kwaiva pedyo nehuipi. Zvimwe zvinhu might appear attractive physically but kuriiko kune miyedzo mizhinji. The movie house might appear attractive but unozogona kuyikunda here muyedzo yacho yeFornication murima imomo apa muri 2 zvenyu nemumwe wako.salary yebasa racho might appear attractive but hauzi kuona miyedzo iripo here.

Its good kutendeuka kwawakaita but ko nhai maMagazine nemaDisc ePorno why are you still keeping them pasi peMattress. Destroy those things, yes hauchaone zvinhu zvakadaro but the fact that you still keeping them, satan achakudhonzera kwazviri futi. Sisi hamuchapfeke hembe dzisina kufanira kupfekwa but uchiri wakadzichengeterei, even kuti upe someone hazviite because dzagara hadziite nekuti its not decent before GOD, so just burn them, nekuti ukaramba wakadzichengeta muWardrobe mako, the devil will tempt you one day to wear those clothes.

Collection yeWhisky iyo yamuri kuchengeta muDisplay apa muchiti makaregedza hwahwa, you are pitching your tent near Sodom. Flasher doro iroro muToilet, rega kugara padhuze nemuyedzo

Lot akagara near Soddom but later on tinoona ava kugara mukati mayo iyo Sodom.

aingoti arikuenda kunoona mukomana wake but takazoona munhu ava nepamuviri. He just said he is going to work but takazomuona asungwa necorruption. Akabuda achiti arikuenda kunotamba maClarks but akadzoka ava nembonje dzeFight. Vakabuda vachiti varikuenda kunotamba snooker kubhawa but vakadzoka vakadhakwa. Vakabuda vachiti varikuenda kuGochi gochi but vakazodzoka nezvirwere. Problem ndeye kuti they pitched their tents near Sodom. If you fly to close to the sun, surely you will get burnt.

2 Angels came kuna Lot pana Genesis 19 vakamuudza kuti nzvimbo ino inokuparadzwa, they came with a message of destruction but at the same time they had a message yekupona kubva kumoto waizonaya. Nhasi ndauya neshoko rekuti nyika ino yatigere shall be destroyed by fire one day but at the same time I want to assure you kuti Jesu achaponesa avo vanotenda maari. So decision iri kwauri whether you want to be saved or you want to be destroyed with the rest of the world. Shoko warinzwa and you know kuti I have 1 area yandakadzika tende rangu pedyo neSodom, you kuti pane zvimwe zvauri kuita zvirikuita kuti uswedere muchivi. If it is so then pray to GOD uchikumbira ruregerero, namata uchikumbira kuti Jesu apinde mumoyo mako uye akupe simba rekudzura matende iwayo.

The tent near Sodom (Part 1 of 2)

Mharidzo: The tent near Sodom (Part 1 of 2)

Scripture reading: Genesis 13:12-13

Kugara kuMbare nekugara pedyo nekuMbare zvakasiyana but munogona kuva nemaSame experiences. Matsotsi ekuMbare anogona kupota achiuuya kuArea kwenyu kuzoba zvekuti in the end unotochema kuti hey matsotsi epaMbare atikuvadza. Wakagara hako outside mbare but the fact that you are near it (Mbare), unogumisira wavaku affectwa nezvinoitika ikoko.If you live too close to something, you are bound kuAffectwa nezvinoitika in that area.

Nhasi tinoda kubata imwe nyaya yakaitika muBible yemurume anonzi Lot, akadzika tende rake pedyo neSodom. The Bible is clear, Lot haana kuenda kunogora kuSodom but he stayed pedyo neSodom, Genesis 13 vs 10 inotaura iyo kuti Lot pitched his tent toward Sodom (KJV), mamwe maVersion oti iwo near Sodom, reshona roti pedyo neSodom, ese maVersion andaverenga arikubuditsa pfungwa yekuti Lot did not stay kuSodom but akagara pedyo neSodom. but as you read on the Bible unozoona kuSodom kuchienda rescue team yaMwari of 2 angels dzichienda kunobuditsa Lot kubva muSodom, kureva kuti Lot was now a resident of Sodom but iye ambotanga asingagare muSodom but just near it.

In life munhu unogona kuita a decision yaunofunga kuti iri right but mhedzisiro yacho inenge iri disaster yega yega, problem ndeye kuti wakaPitcher tende yako pedyo neSodom, you strategically positioned yourself near wickedness. If you fly to close to the sun you will surely get burnt. Nekudaro pane mamwe maTende ari supposed kudzurwa wotsvaga pamwe pekugara far away from Sodom. There are some decisions which you are supposed to reverse so that urege kupinda muhuipi.

Vafudzi vemombe vaAbraham nevaLot vakaita problem, they used to fight over nyaya yemafuro. Abraham ndokuudza Lot kuti ngaparege kuvanekunetsana pakati pangu newe, my herdsmen and your herdsmen. What we are going to do is this, iwewe Lot sarudza kwaunoda kuenda kunogara, if you chose right, inini I will choose left, if you choose left, inini I will choose right. Ipapo Lot ndipo paakatarisa bani reJordan which was well watered akati ndinoda kunogara ikoko, that area he choose to stay ndiyo yanga iri direction ine Sodom. And Bible roenda mberi richiti he pitched his tent near Sodom.

Verse 13 yoti the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly. Ukanzwa Bible rakushandisa vara rekuti exceedingly, chibva waziva kuti hapasisina kumira mushe. Kana dziri nyaya dzehuipi chete, the people of Sodom vanga vari kumberi. Yet Lot ndiyo area yaakasarudza kuenda kunogara pedyo nayo, whether he knew it or not kuti vanhu veArea iyoyo yakaipa.

Ukaona Lot achigara pedyo neSodom it might like look a clever idea kuti murume uyu aona kuti Sodom haizi right so instead of staying inside he has choose to stay near there than kutopinda mukati mayo. It might look good but it is not good nekuti uchakwezverwa kupinda muSodom umu 1 day or iyo Sodom yacho ndiyo ichauya kwauri. There are some decisions which might appear innocent at first but later on uchaona kuipa kwazvo.

Baba makaregedza hwahwa mavakunamata, makaita decision yakanaka but iyi tsika yekuti munopota muchienda kuBhawa muchiti hanzi ndinoda kuona bhora, be very careful. You are pitching your tent near Sodom. Urikuzviisa pedyo nemuyedzo, are you able to resist. Murikuona henyu bhora but the devil can take advantage kukudzosera back muchivi chamakabuda machiri. Ndipo paunoona imwe shamwari yako inobva yatanga kukutengera hwahwa, which he never did before Anotokuvhuriria okuisira muGlass wonzwa achiti imwa shamwari, kuti umuudze kuti aiwa ndava kunamata, he tells you kuti 1 pint chete here ringakutadzise kunamata here. You bow in to pressure, that 1 pint leads to another, before you know it you are drunk. Problem ndeye kuti waisa tent yako pedyo neSodom, watambira kuArea ine muyedzo.

Brother & sisters, hamusati machata imimi, you are still mukomana nemusikana, hongu maPlans aripo ekuti muzochate, but iyi tsika yekupota muchionana penyu pakahwanda pasina vanhu you are pitching your tent toward Sodom. Kana muyedzo yacho yabata munozogona here kuyikunda. Muri vanhu venyama, you are subject to feelings, and the fact yekuti munoonana penyu mega, satan ndipo paanokukurudzirai to fornicate. Its much easier kukunda miyedzo uyu if you are meet in public place than kusangana kwakahwanda kwenyu kusina anokuonai. Hanzi she is just coming for a sleep over, ini ndinorara hangu mupasi and iye she will sleep pamubhedha, munozoikwanisa here muyedzo yacho. Tent ngaidzurwe muzive kwekutandarira kusingazokupinzei pamuyedzo wekuita bonde or kubatana batana zvinorambwa neBible.

Its very true kuti mabasa arikunetsa and we try by all means kuchengetedza mabasa atinenge tawana. But pane mamwe mabasa atiri supposed kuramba because they draw us near to sin. Unonyatsoona kuti muyedzo iri in this area haizi kuita, ndinogona kupotsa denga nazvo. Waedza kuyikunda miyedzo yacho but zvaramba, just pray asking GOD for another job isina muyedzo iyoyo. Urikunyatsoona kuti pauri kushanda apa your boss varikuda kushandisa position yavo and money to sleep with you and you are finding it hard to resist, chingosiya basa racho ukumbire Mwari vakupe rimwe. Urikuona kuti kuDepartment rawakaiswa uku kune maTemptations ekuita huori, kumbira kuiswa in a better department isina problem iyoyo kana kutotsvaga rimwe basa, than kuPitcher tende yako towards Sodom.

Wakatevera Chii (Part 3)

Scripture reading: Matthew 8:19-20

a lesson also kuvaparidzi, rega kutsvetera vanhu nemanyepo kuti vatendeuke. taurira vanhu chokwadi from the Bible and that in itself is enough kuti munhu atendeuke.

Take this example: mukomana anosvika pane musikana and he says, hie, shaz ndaita problem I was supposed kuenda kuAirport to pick up my parcel yakatumirwa neBusiness partner yangu iri kuSpain but ndakanganwa security code yeS600 benz yangu and vanhu vekuZimoco vari paLunch. So I was thinking kuti ndikamirira kuti 2 dzichaye can we just go paMiekles and have a small lunch kana ye50 dollars inorder to kill time. Do you know kuti kana arimusikana asina maPrinciples ekuzvibata you will agree kuti handei, but kutevera kwako hakuzi genuine, chauri kuda maPhysical benefits ane mukomana uyu.mufesi anozosara oti I love you but musikana akabira kare, but that relationship is fake. Yakasunganidzwa nemari.

Take also the other extreme yekuti mukomana anobuditsa kutambura kwake pamberi pekumusikana haana kana any material thing yaanoda kushandisa kuAffecter decision yemunhu, opfimba musikana and musikana obvuma. Wega unonyatsoona kuti apa itrue love iyi hapana zvekunyeperana. Zvekuti people don?t understand it kuti nhai paye wakadei pane mufesi uyu.

That?s the kind of relationship we must have with GOD yekuti munhu asingazive Mwari anoshamiika kuti nhai chiiko chaunopedzera nguva yako uchinamata. Chinokubatanidza naMwari ngachirege kuva chinhu chiri physical but let it be the love of Christ.

Handirambe kuti Mwari unoropafadza vanhu with material things, that much I know and I believe it also kuti Mwari anogona kupa vana vake pfuma, but ngatirege kunamata with a motive of gaining wealth chete, nekuti kana ukazoishaya pfuma yacho you are in trouble, satan ndipo paanozevezera kuti bamnini regedzai zvekunamata izvo, chinguri chamakabvira kunamata but tarisa nhamo iri mumba mako. And for sure unotosiya kunamata nekuti unenge uchiona as if kunanamata hakubatsire, but problem yako ndeyekuti wakanamata Mwari kwete nekuti ndiMwari but because you wanted to gain something from Him.

Vamwe vakanamata Mwari nekuti vane zvavaida and once they got it vakabva vasiya kunamata. Paakawana basa raaida kana kuChurch haachauye, paakwana muchato waaida kana Bible haachaverenge, when she got healed, kana kutsanya haachatsanye. Akawana zvaaida but izvozvo zvine danger nekuti you can gain pfuma yepano pasi but kana relationship yako naJesu yavhiringika you can miss heaven. Shuwa wotadza kupinda denga here all because of pfuma inoparara. Jesu anobvunza pana Mark 8:36-37 For what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world yet lose his life? What can a man give in exchange for his life?

Hukamana hwako naMwari ngaubatanidzwe naJesu more than anything. Judas aitevera Jesu kwete nekuti anoda Jesu but because aida kuMaker profit on every opportunity yaawana but look at the end of the matter.

Kana wafunga kutevera Jesu, mutevere nekuti ndiIshe naMuponesi wako more zvimwe zvese zvaungade kubva kwaari. All other things are just benefits, ngazvirege kuva iva izvo the main motive inokupa kutevera Jesu nekuti zvinhu izvozvo ukazozvishaya, tichakuona wakuramba kunamata.

Matthew16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, LET HIM DENY HIMSELF, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Wakatevera Chii (Part 2)

Scripture reading: Matthew 8:19-20

“Mudzidzisi, ndichakuteverai kwose kwamunoenda.”Jesu akapindura achiti, “Makava ane mwena yawo, shiri dzina matendere adzo, asi Mwanakomana woMunhu haana paangatsamidza musoro wake.”

This scribe ataura kuti anoda kutevera Jesu, but mhinduro yaJesu haaudze munhu kuti follow me or usanditevere, but anotaura a very crucial statement rinogona kuita kuti munhu achinje hurongwa hwake. statement rakataurwa naJesu rinogona kuita kuti munhu aite review yeDecision yake kuti ummmm let me change my earlier plans, izvi hazvichaite. Munhu anogona kuti ndirikuenda kuTown for shopping, iwe womuti I will follow you kwese kwauchaenda, ukapinda muJoina neni ndinewe, ukapinda paEastgate tiri tese, ukapinda muChicken inn, tiri tese,munhu uyu abva angoti ana John vanofamba nemaCombi, ana Spenser vanofamba nemota dzavo ini zvangu Peter ndinofamba netsoka kupinda muTown. Iwo mashoko iwawo anogona kuti ukanzure decision yako yekuda kutevera munhu muTown,nekuti kuti ufunge kuti kubva Chitungwa kunobata Harare CBD hapazi pano, pauchati water works, wozoti pachinhamo, wozoti koala, maruta, coca-cola, haaa unonyatsoona kuti izvi hazviite izvi. But kana wanga uchida kutevera munhu pashuwa chaipo unotaura kuti no problem handei tsano.

Jesu anoudza murume uyu kuti foxes have holes, birds of the air have have nests but the son of man has nowhere to lay his head. Makava ane mwena, shiri dzedenga even though dziri dzemudenga dzine matendere adzo, but Mwanakomana wemunhu anova Jesu haana paangaise musoro wake.

To someone zvinogona kumunetsa kuti ko nhai izvo zvemwena wemakava nematendere zvapinda papi, hanti munhu angoti anoda kutevera Jesu, ko zvavakupindurwa izvo zvinei nekutevera Jesu. Nyamba iyi Jesu wacho anege atonzvera moyo wemunhu aoona the real motive yatuma munhu kuti afunge kumutevera. Zvekuti pahu2 hwavo they fully understand each other, vamwe vese mungatedze henyu kuziva kuti zvirikufamba sei but iye Jesu anenge achitoziva kuti answer yaataura ndiyo chaiyo and iye apindurwa anenge achiziva kuti yah ndapihwa the correct answer.

Foxes have holes, birds of the air have nests but the son of man has no place to lay his head. Kana murume uyu aida kutevera Jesu nekuti aifunga kuti achazopihwa a good place to sleep in the night, airasa, kana aifunga kuti Jesu ane palace yepano pasi which is very beautiful kwaaizopihwa room yekugara airasa. Nekuti Mwanakomana wemunhu haana pekuisa musoro.

statement raJesu iri harizi rekuDiscourager munhu, aiwa but ndere kuClear any wrong motive inogona iine munhu uyu yamutuma kuti atevere Jesu. Back in school pataienda kumaSports usually vanhu vaienda kumaSports with a motive yekuda kunodya chikafu more than a true sports motive. Akateya glucose, mumwe akateya mazoe, mumwe akateya chingwa chine jam, but pane pamwe pekuti zvinhu zvaigona kuoma and moudzwa kuti kwatiri kuenda hakuna chikafu nhasi. Mumwe munhu zvaimurwadza nekuti the true motive yake yanga isiri yekuThrower javelin or discuss but aida kuThrower chikafu chichipinda mukanwa.

Kuudzwa kunzi nhasi hakuna lunch kumaSports hakuzi kunzi wadzingwa but purpose ndeye kuti kana wanga uine chinangwa chisiricho ugare waziva zvokwadi.

Christ does not want deceived followers, Jesu asiyana nevamwe vaparidzi vanoda kuDeceiver vanhu kuti vavatevere. Ndava kune vamwe vashumiri vanotaura zvavasina inorder to attract people to them. I see your car, I see your marriage, I see your house, ndirikuona uchichata, and many other promises (but im yet to hear anyone anoti I see you going to heaven). Unoudzwa zvinhu zvaunofarira kunzwa zvekuti you end up wavakutevera munhu uyu because you want to gain zvinhu zvaataura. Manje Jesus was not a deceiver, he did not attract people by hook and crook.

Mwari vasiyana nevakomana vanonyepera vasikana in order to be in a relationship with them. Unotonzwa munhu achiti rume risinganyepe harirore, and he uses tsumo iyoyo kuJustifier nhema dzaanoudza musikana wake and ignores maBible verse anomurambidza kunyepa. Foundation yeRelationship yake itsumo, Bible rinoiswa kure, no wonder why achizoFailer maRelatioships acho nekuti already you have left out GOD. Kunyenga nekunyengera zvinhu 2 zvakatosiyana, you lied to her so that she can follow you. but manje Mwari havadaro, vanoudza munhu chokwadi, havape vanhu maFake promises ekuti vanamate, but everyone is told the truth so that kana uchitevera Mwari you have a clear understanding of why you are following Jesus.

Once you declare the truth about yourself you will have genuine followers.
